At the end of February 2018, I decided to do something for my personal fitness. I decided to start doing 100 miles each month either walking, jogging or running.  I thought I was doing something original, however, I soon learned that I was not alone.  Apparently, it is a global thing. Soon after I typed the hashtag #100milechallenge I found so many people all over Instagram that were embarking on this same journey.

Regardless of not being “original”, it did not deter my fortitude. Some months I crushed it and others, well not so much, but the point is that I kept moving forward. At this time last year, I would get blisters and be sore after walking 8 miles. Now, I can easily jog 13 miles and not be sore the next day. Chaffing is another story though, so suggestions are welcome! Leave them in the comments section below ⇓

I have decided that in 2019 I will do my first half-marathon. I have my eyes set on the Sonoma to Napa half-marathon in July and I think I have successfully talked a few friends into joining me. Apparently, there is a lot of wine at the finish line so that helps!

I will keep you posted as my journey continues….
